The pancreas is the main digestive gland in our body and it secretes these enzymes:
The pancreas does not produce carbohydrates. We get carbohydrates from eating food such as fruit, vegetables and grain products. What the pancreas does is help break down food in order for the digestive system to function properly.
The pancreas digests sugars which it breaks down into stored energy by producing a hormone known as Insulin.
Pancreatic lipase breaks down lipids or fat molecules.
The digestive enzymes of the pancreas help to break down fats, proteins and starch molecules.
Fats, carbohydrates, and proteins.

Lipases are the enzymes that cleave fats. Fats are known scientifically as lipids, so the enzyme responsible for its break-down is called lipase.
Lipase is produced in the pancreas, then excreted into the duodenum via the pancreatic duct. Once in the small intestine, it can proceed to break down fats.
No bile does not break down fat. Bile salts only aid in digestion of lipids(fats) by emulsifying them. Pancreatic lipase breaks down the lipids.
The Pancreae is the organ prducing three enzymes, amylase,protease and lipase. Pancreatic lipase breaks down large fat molecules contaning one glycerol and three fatty acids to small digested molecules. Simple answer to your question: Pancreatic Lipase :D
Lipids are broken down by the enzyme Lipase.
Lipase can't break down maltose because it is meant to break down lipids. Maltose is a form of a carboydrate, which is broken down by maltase.
Bile is used to break down lipase during digestion.
Lipase breaks down lipids (fats) LIPASES
Lipase, which breaks down fats, and pancreatic amylase, which breaks down carbohydrates.
Pancreatic lipase is a water-soluble enzyme secreted by the pancreas. Like other lipases, its function is to break down lipids (fats) in the intestinal tract.
The co-lipase is a protein co-enzyme that is needed for the optimal enzyme activity of the pancreatic lipase.
Both use lipase to break down fats.
